The Reor yanized Elkton Colored CoGnet
Baud.

Last fall several mem bers Of the Elktcn
Colored Cornet Band of this place hired
with an Uncle Toms Cabin company to
travel over the country and participate i'll
parades at the various towns at which the
company should stop. Since then they have
visited many places and states. Recently,
however, the Uncle Toms Cabin company
ceased to exhibit in halls asits custom in all
but the summer season, and commenced eX
hibitiug in tents. 1t is needless to say that
this brought A great deal OF additional labor
ON the musicians who were also wanted to
move aud erect the tent. The Elkton boys
therefore decided that they had Travelled
long enough with the show and started for
home to see their old SweeheaItS. They ali
arrived here this week with the exception
of Amos Bradley the leader who left the
show but did not for certain reasons desire
10 return to our town. While the departure
of the EktOn musicians from the Uncle
Toms Cabin company was doubtless loss
to that organization it WAS gain to our
local coored band. With its old members
back in their places greatly improved as
musicians by the constant practice that
their business required, the band ptraied
our streets On Monday night and rendered
coed mUSic. The following compose the
band Prof. EplIial .. Milbuln, leader;
George W. Shippers, assistant leader, Frank
c. Miller, solo, BB corner: Chas. Howser,
second BE cornet; Thomas Davis, first alto;
Allen Francis second alto; George Brown,
first tenor; Samuel Hamilton, second tenor;
Haywood r. Hogan, sole tromhonei thas.
Bazill, baritone: Chls Daniels, first tuber;
| George W. q DrGon, second tuber; Richard
| Hutchinson, snare drummer and secretary;
| Wilmer rulleu, bass drummer; John San
ders, cymbals; Arthur, 81 hStitute drummer.

MkBLEY & CAREW'S CHIT CHAT,

Summer days, hot waves
and sultry weather are now in
season. We would suggest
that YOU avoid all unnecessary
eNertion and give your most
earnest thoughts to the ncim-
portant consideration. U07y 10
keep cool. Don't permit your
self to become vcXcd and irri-
tated over trihes, for nothing so
much tends to aggravate the en-
ervating objects ofwarm wealth
er as to place ones selfin apo-
sition to be disappointed.
Speakingupon this subjectDis-
appointments, we'll remark
right here that folks who are
compelled to "go shopping'
experience many veXations and
meet with numerous disap-
pointments in their weary
walks from store to store, from
shop to shop, searching for
what they wish to purchase.
There's as much difference in
the individual tastes of people
as there is in the variety and
quality of goods. If a store
does not sell goods to please
everybody then these establish
ments must take chances for
trade on such patronage as they
may accidental lyreccive. Well
we were discussing the ques-
tions of zya1W zYeathe1- a0dA07y
to Keep Cool. These are sub
jects that will interest you, So
we'll give you a few pointers
that way be useful to you when
you visit Baltimore.
